Acoustical estimation of vertical distributions of zooplankton was carried out by using the backscattered signals of ADCP which was deployed in the Korea Strait in September, 1978. the backscattered signals of ADCP represents the total backward sound intensity caused by the scatters existing within the insonified water column of 8m deep. Based on these backscattered intensities, the estimated number of individual zooplankton (namely, Copepods) varies with depth such that in the surface layer above the thermocline, the numbers are exceedingly larger than the lower layer. It is also shown that a relatively larger number of individuals exists in the bottom cold water layer in the centeral part of the Strait. The horizontal distribution of the zooplankton in the surface layer across the west channel of the Strait shows that the number is higher in the coastal zone of the Korea and it decreases toward the central and then remains constant up to the vicinity of the Tsushima Island where it increases again. This type of distributions is well fitted to the one obtained at several stations by the conventional method at least in qualitative way. Therefore, it is quite plausible to use the ADCP data for monitoring the spatial and temporal distributions of zooplankton.

Biomonitoring Survey and Assessment Manual for lake ecosystem suggest zooplankton collection methods to compare relatively the number of species, population density, and community indices, taking into account the convenience of the field sampling according to the sites' water depth. In this study, the oblique towing and 20 m vertical towing methods presented in the manual were respectively compared with the whole water column-vertical towing and we analyzed the differences and characteristics of zooplankton community information gathered by each collection method. For community indices, there was no difference in the comparison of oblique/vertical towing methods in the shallow lake, but in the deep lake, the diversity and richness indices increased when vertically towing through whole water column rather than when limiting the towing depth to 20 m. In addition, the total zooplankton density collected by the oblique/20 m vertical towing methods was about three times higher than the whole water column-vertical towing method, which means that the density of zooplankton community can be overestimated depending on the collection methods. It appears to be results of differences in the zooplankton density by water layer arising from their vertical distribution and in filtered raw water quantity according to the towing depth/distance. Hence, for zooplankton community information to be used as a functional quantitative indicator representing the entire lake, it would be more appropriate to apply the whole water column-vertical towing method with considering the distribution of zooplankton density by depth and contribution rate of each water layer when converting total zooplankton density.

In this paper, we formulate two chemostat type models of phytoplankton and zooplankton population dynamics with instant nutrient recycling to study the role of viral infection on phytoplankton. The infection is transmitted only among phytoplankton population and it makes them more vulnerable to predation by zooplankton. It is observe that the chemostat system is very stable in the absence of viral infection but the presence of viral infection make the chemostat system sensitive with respect to the grazing rate of infected-phytoplankton by zooplankton. Further, if the grazing rate is less than certain threshold the system remain stable and exhibits Hopf-bifurcation after crossing it.

The present paper deals with secular analysis of zooplankton biomass by statistical method in the south sea of Korea during the period of nine years from 1963 through 1971. Data were taken from the Annual Report of Oceanographic Observations, Fisheries Research and Development Agency, Korea. The trend value of annual variations in the 108 month period above was calculated by method of 12 month moving average, and a period analysis was made by ore of correlogram method using autocorrelation coefficients. The trend of zooplankton biomass shows periodical fluctuation for the period of 63 months with high interrelationships. The seasonal variation has teen obvious with growth phase twice a year, in April and October.

In order to clarify the seasonal composition and abundance of zooplankton commuuty In Macheon Bay. the study was carried out trimonthly during the period from April 1996 to January 1997. 1 species of Cnidana. 1 species of Annelida, 2 Ima of Moiluscs.3 species of Rotifera, 4 species and 4 larspecies was Tintinnopsis beroidea In the spring, Copepodite In the summer, Tintinnopsis beroidea In the autumn and Ceratium risus In the winter. Abundance of zooplankton ranged firom 4.720 to 41,215 Inds./1 It was high In the summer (41,215 inds./l) and low In the spring 14,720 inds./l). Dominant index ranged from 0.133 (in the spring) to 0.551 (in the winter). Species diversity inden ranged from 1.114 (in the winters to 1.996 (in the spring).

We estimated the influence of environmental factors on zooplankton communities at 25 reservoirs during winter (December 2010 to January 2011). Among zooplankton groups, Cyclops vicinus is more dominant during winter, and this is positively related to withered vegetation area and dissolved oxygen level. Therefore, the presence of withered vegetation might be considered as an important factor to determine C. vicinus distribution during winter. We considered that withered vegetation might be utilized as a habitat for C. vicinus, as well as provide an attachment substrate for periphytic algae. Abundance of periphytic algae can lead to high concentration of dissolved oxygen. Although copepods prefer high water temperatures for increasing their population growth, if Cyclops can overcome low temperature stress that leads to disruption of population, their population growth initiation in the next growing season (i.e. next spring) is possibly propelled by the winter population.

For the test of zooplankton's ability to migrate vertically in the coastal area of active tidal mixing, day-night differences in zooplankton catches were examined. Some taxa such as large Copepods, My side, chaetognatha and Bivalve larva showed high abundances at surface layer at night suggesting the presence of vertical migration even in this shallow coastal area of active tidal mixing. Previously used methods of sampling were reviewed to find a proper sampling method in the Korean western coastal area.

The present paper deals with secular analysis of zooplankton biomass in the eastern area of the Yellow Sea during the last seven years from 1963 to 1969. The annual variation of zooplankton biomass in the research area shows increase since October 1965, the lowest point. The increasing shape is a parabola expression, BM= 0.0146 $T^2+0.0448T+38.0436$ (BM, Biomass; T, Time, of which zero point is placed at December 1965).

This study aims to inactivate Artemia sp. (Zooplankton) in ballast water through the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma process. The DBD plasma process has the advantage of enabling direct electric discharge in water and utilizing chemically active species generated by the plasma reaction. The experimental conditions for plasma reaction are as follows; high voltage of 9-22 kV, plasma reaction time of 15-600 s, and air flow rate of 0.5-5.5 L/min. The results showed that the optimal experimental conditions for Artemia sp inactivation were 16 kV, 60 s, 2.5 L/min, respectively. The concentrations of total residual oxidants and ozone generated by plasma reaction increased with an increase of in voltage and reaction time, and the concentration of generated air did not increase above a certain amount.
